Lesson 17: Geometric Distribution Part 1

Introduction to Geometric Distribution. We give an intuitive introduction to the geometric random variable, outline its probability mass function, and cumulative distribution function.

Thank you so much, it is a great video!
The only clear explanation on RUclips.

Never thought I would say this, but I am starting to feel the Bern!

I found this series of videos to be very helpful. Am an engineering student by the way :)

thank you for showing the cdf proof this way! I was not getting it with the "shorter" way other videos were using!

Thank you so much for this video. I had been looking for the condition where geometric distribution is applied. In every video I watched, they only taught how a problem is solved using geometric distribution. None of them taught when this distribution is applied.
This video has helped me so much. Thank you for this😇

For the CDF of the Geometric function, there is a faster way.
You can find the sum of a geometric series for r (ratio) between (-1,1) , by using the formula: S_n= a(1-r^n)/1-r where a is the first term of the serie. If you use this formula, it only takes one line of paper.

Px(k) is not suppose to be Pk(k), I am not really sure

15:23 this is sometimes called the survivor function O: oh i bet i know what that means...
